How to stick or glue a label to a selected area
When I selected a part or a clip from a recording and give that part a label, the label does not move sync with the clip. Is there a trick to do that?

You may need to describe exactly what you are trying to do. Labels are saved in the Audacity project. Labels are not included in exported files.Joepiet wrote:But how can I store those syncs and get them back when I reopen Audacity?
